Virginia Tech is considering Brent Pry for a defensive coordinator role rather than reinstating him as head coach.
Pry’s head-coaching record at Virginia Tech was 16-24 over three years, with a lingering question about fit for the program’s standards.
James Franklin is reported to be targeting Pry for a defensive coordinator job at Virginia Tech.
Pry previously worked under Franklin at Penn State and Vanderbilt, fueling expectations he could return in a reduced role.
The Hokies have not officially announced Pry’s defensive role yet, and the offensive coordinator search is ongoing.
A defensive-focused role could allow Pry to rebuild form while leveraging his strengths without the burdens of the head-coaching spotlight.
The move would turn Pry’s buyout into a potential on-field asset rather than dead money for Virginia Tech.
Virginia Tech has not formally announced Pry’s defensive role, and the defensive/offensive coordinator hiring is still in flux.
The analysis notes Pry’s potential fit as a coordinator could be a cautious gamble with mixed outcomes.
